Pop Star: Christine in California

“I love your site, and love making cake pops! My husband recently challenged me to make cake pops of the characters in South Park- Kenny, Kyle, Stan, and Cartman. I haven’t seen these type of cake pops done yet. It was the most fun I’ve had making cake pops so far! The heads were simple balls, except for Cartman; he’s fat, so I smushed two cake balls together to make him. :) I made flesh color for the overall dips of the heads. The hats were second and third dips of different colors. The tassels on top of the hats were made with extra candy coating. The white eyes were made with fondant. The black parts were drawn in with an edible ink pen. Kyle’s green hat was the most challenging, but I was able to make it work. I used a marshmallow and cut out part of it with a circle cutter. I sprayed it with green Color Mist (love that product!). I made the front flap of the hat with a green sour apple strip, cut to fit and sprayed with more Color Mist to darken it.” – Christine

Oh my gosh! These are adorable!! I’ve been looking for a cupcake/cake idea with a South Park theme and these jumped out at me when I came across them. I’ve never made cake pops before though. I’m seeing them a lot more lately. Great job!
